FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LUKE H. CHATMAN SCHOLARSHIP
GGL releases 2005 Scholarship packet

GREENVILLE, SC: The Gamma Gamma Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc. awards the Luke H. Chatman Memorial Scholarship to deserving high school seniors.

The Chapter released on October 31, 2004, the 2005 Luke H. Chatman Memorial Scholarship application packet, which includes the scholarship application, recommendation forms and instruction sheet. The deadline for submitting the packet is April 1, 2005. This year, the scholarship is targeted to African-American Males (preferred).

These scholarships are based on the whole person concept, which encompasses academic achievement, leadership, citizenship, athletics and service to the community. Also, an applicant's financial need will be considered in the selection of the scholarships. As started last year, the scholarship application requires two letters of reference from the community. If one or both of the reference is a brother of Alpha Phi Alpha, the application will receive preference in the selection process.

Last year, the chapter awarded one $3,000.00 scholarship for the 2003-04 school year, and we are expecting to announce a similar award for this year.

Any questions regarding the scholarship should be directed to Willie Sullivan, Scholarship Committee Chairman, via email message at mspink514@charter.net.
